RECKLESS DRIVING IS NO JOKE

IN NEW HAMPSHIRE

New Hampshire throws the book at reckless drivers. Even a first offense comes with hefty fines and a 60-day license suspension.

When you've been charged with reckless driving or other serious motor vehicle offense, turn to New Hampshire traffic attorney Ryan Russman before your life comes to a screeching halt.

Attorney Russman is New Hampshire’s most expert lawyer when it comes to motor vehicle criminal defense; you won't find a better traffic attorney to take on the system and get results.

Whether it's keeping you on the road so you don't lose your job or getting charges and fines reduced to prevent habitual offender certification, you need the skill and expertise offered by Attorney Ryan Russman.

New Hampshire Reckless Driving Law

NH 265:79 Reckless Driving; Minimum Penalty. – Whoever upon any way drives a vehicle recklessly, or causes a vehicle to be driven recklessly, as defined in RSA 626:2, II(c), or so that the lives or safety of the public shall be endangered, or upon a bet, wager, or race, or who drives a vehicle for the purpose of making a record, and thereby violates any of the provisions of this title or any rules adopted by the director, shall be, notwithstanding the provisions of title LXII, guilty of a violation and fined not less than $500 for the first offense and $750 for the second offense nor more than $1,000 and his or her license shall be revoked for a period of 60 days for the first offense and from 60 days to one year for the second offense.

Because the definition of reckless driving is purposely vague, a reckless driving ticket is usually a judgment call made by the officer, who is prepared to defend his judgment by testifying against you in court.

Police, prosecutors, and the state move swiftly against you. If you don't have an experienced reckless driving lawyer working to secure your rights, the impact on your life, your job, and your financial well-being will be enormous.

Attorney Russman has defended hundreds of people against reckless driving misdemeanors and felonies, protecting his clients from the devastation of such serious charges by working to have the ticket dismissed or reduced to a lesser violation, by fighting for your right to keep your license, and by keeping you from being run over by the justice system.

Driving With a Suspended License

New Hampshire's complex reckless driving and suspended license laws allow you to be charged with driving with a suspended license even if you didn't receive notice that your license was suspended.

If you get caught driving after your license has been suspended, you will be guilty of a misdemeanor, and if you commit another traffic violation while driving with a suspended license, you'll also face fines and jail time. If you're involved in a collision that causes death or serious injury, you'll be charged with a felony and face serious prison time.

Fortunately, New Hampshire's premier traffic attorney Ryan Russman can work closely with you to protect and defend drivers in New Hampshire.

With a firm belief that every client should be defended as if he or she was a family member, Ryan Russman doesn't stop working until he has achieved the best possible solution on your behalf.

Habitual Offenders

If you are certified as a habitual offender in the state of New Hampshire, your driving privileges will be permanently revoked. Without a driver's license, most people cannot work or achieve the quality of life they desire. While most states offer a restricted license option, New Hampshire does not. If you are certified as a habitual offender, you don't get to drive. Period.

The difference between a speeding ticket and a reckless driving ticket can often keep you from being considered an habitual offender. Be advised: Attorney Ryan Russman has a terrific track record of successfully arguing for reduced charges.
